ARE OREGONIAN5 SMARTER THAN NEW YORKERS?
This advertisement appeared in a leading
New York Sunday paper on .March 9,and
was a failure. Of course, we have no business to make comparisons, for at times they are odious. But we do. however, realize
the fact that It la the most difficult three-word rebus eevr published, and any one who Is at all smart can solve it in two
hours. If you are too old, your sons or daughters can solve it for you. Anyway, the prize is worth trying for. Then why
not try? It costs you no money, and even If you do not succeed in getting the correct rebus answer, you may win one of the
other big cash prizes without labor or expense. "Who knows but what the three words this rebus spells is mentioned in this
advertisement? Therefore read it through very carefully.

reward In order to convince the -public that they will always receive honest treatment from us.
R. O
sOwrt xi'i 125, -?
ruring the past two years, it will be remembered, we adver
tised what were considered the biggest contests wer published.
Tho cash prizes amounted to over 5T5.0CO, and the names of the
prizewinners will be sent upon request. Just stop and think for
for one moment what grand cash prizes these were three peo
ple were made foappy and independent for life by having an an-.
nulty awarded to them.
Now, If you were so foolish as to ignore all of our previous
advertisements, we certainly would advise you not to overlook
this one, for without a doubt it is the opportunity of your life,
as YOU HAVE A GOOD CHANCE TO WIN $2000 IN CASH.

VERTISEMENT, and which represents a well-known saying.
We want to distinctly impress upon your mind that there is no
trick or catch about this rebus, for it is a well-known quotation
from Shakespeare, and one that we hear repeated a great many
times. If you cannot And the three correct words this rebus
spells, but find only one, you will receive a special prize worth
$2. If you will send in your answer at once you will not be dis
appolnted. Some one is going to win the money, and it may be

las ever appeared in print. The envelope containing the correct
answer has been sealed and deposited wtlh a leading safe-deposit

of conducting a contest, as every one will have an equal chance. In the event of more than one correct answer being received, wo
will request five parties who have answered this advertisement to act as a committee to award the cash pro rata. They will be notified to
come to Boston at our expense and be our guests while in this city. We take this original method of ours of selecting a committee to show
our good faith, and as we want to treat all in the fairest manner possible. The committee will be selected solely upon their merits from

The steamer Aberdeen, carrying 465,000

out from Astoria yesterday afternoon
for San Pedro. The steamer Acme, with
a similar sized cargo, crossed out Thurs

From present indications this activity
in tho coasting business will continue in

NEW CHARTER PARTY.
San Francisco Exporters "Will
Chnrge GO Cents per Ton.
The San Francisco Commercial News
has the following regarding the new
charter party which the San Francisco
exporters expect to adopt and have ef
fective May 1:
"There are but two important alterations,
ono being that a charge of 60 cents per
Ehort ton will be made for furnishing the
ship stiffening, and the other Is that char
terers stevedores must be employed and
the rate of compensation 6hall be 30c per
long ton for wheat, rye or flour, and 30c
per short ton for barley. Each of these
provisions have met with criticism, but
those favoring the new charter point out
that wheat for stiffening is often deliv
ered to ship at points from 30 to 50 miles
away from loading point, and it is but
just the ship should pay the expense of
delivering the wheat for stiffening at the
place required by the vessel, before 6he
can be in condition to move to loading
port; that the stevedore rates named are
present current rates, and that contracts
made by stevedores with owners for ship
business have never held good when the
charterer elected to have his own steve
dore, so that no change Is made, but mere
ly a right frequently enforced is here
clearly indicated. The Port of Roven and
Manchester Canal above the bridges are
excluded, concessions to the owner not
given In the old charter unless under spe
cial arrangement."

Raising; Ministers' Rank.
NEW YORK. April 12. Robert S. Mc

tria, who ' came here to meet Mrs. Mc
Cormlck and Miss Patterson of Chicago,
on their arrival from the United States,
thinks there is no doubt that the Austrian
legislative assembly will pas3 the bill rais
ing tho Austrian (Minister at Washington
to the rank of Ambassador, cables the
London correspondent of the Herald.
"In Austria there are evidences," ha
said, "of nothing but the kindliest feellngs
toward the United States; In fact tho feel
ings are of the very warmest nature.
When the delegates of Austria and Hun
gary, who will decide the question ofv
raising the rank of Minister, meet at Bu-V
dapest on May 1, I am sure they will
pass the bill. The rank, however, will
not be raised until January 1, because thel
budget for the year already has been
fixed."

At this season of the year when Nature is making a
supreme effort to purge the system of the impurities and
poisons that have collected during the winter months a
vigorous and healthy appetite is needed to sustain the "body
while this purifying process is going on, hut this much
desired helpmate is sometimes lacking, for even the best
regulated appetite is apt to go wrong now and become
unreliable and fickle, and has to be humored and coaxed
to bring it back to that condition where all food is rel
ished and eating becomes a pleasure. A hungry appetite
does not have to be feasted and feted, nor tempted with
dainty viands and delicacies. The plainest fare will
satisfy its cravings, while a sickly and defective appetite
will turn with loathing and disgust from the most sump
tuous banquet.
Various methods are adopted to coax back the lost
anpetite. The Liver is prodded with pills and the Stomach drenched with cheap tonics and;
bitters, but these only produce a morbid or variable appetite ; ravenous one day and sickening
at the bare thought of food the next.
S. S, S. is tie ideal Spring Tonic and coaxes an appetite when nothing else can. It is
not only a perfect appetizer and exhilaratinor
tonic, but contains also the properties needful
for the purification of the blood, and giving that
richness and tone, without which perfect digestion

The members of the Swift Specific Company
have been known to me personally for twenty- result is dyspepsia with all its distressing symp-
toms, capricious appetite, innammation, iuimess
and heaviness in stomach, nausea, dizziness, and
worst of all insomnia and nervousness.
S. S. S. in thus purifying and invigorating
the blood renders the greatest assistance to Nature,
for with healthy, nutritious blood circulating
through the system it is fully prepared for the
chancres which take nlace during the Sorinc-. If
there are any defects or weak spots in the constitution they are apt to develop as warm
weather comes on, and diseases that have lain dormant all Winter come to the surface.
To prevent this S. S. S. should be begun at once, so that the germs and seeds of disease may
be destroyed, and the poisons and acids in the blood antidoted and neutralized while in a
torpid or inactive state, then with strong, healthy blood and
a free and active circulation the machinery of life moves on
with vigor and regularity, and not only a good appetite is
assured, but sound digestion and refreshing- sleep. S. S. S.
is thebest remedy for that "fagged out and semi-invalid
condition " so common at this season of the year, and the
benefits derived from its use are real and permanent. In
S. S. S. Nature has provided the best blood purifier and safest tonic. Tt mntni-nc
